This strawberry cheesecake recipe was introduced to me by a friend, Abi. When I went to stay with her in Devon Abi did a great job of being really Paleo-friendly with all the food, helped by the fact that her daughter is celiac. Abi had found the recipe on The Rawtarian’s website. It’s a great [...]

The strawberry cheesecake pots I made the other week gave me some inspiration for a dairy-free pudding. I wasn’t sure if this would work, but when I’d finished them I was really pleased. While they had a bit of a gelatinous skin over the top, the texture underneath was just like a classic rhubarb fool [...]

This is very much primal, rather than paleo, but it works a treat. Cheesecake is perhaps the pudding I miss most with all that creamy deliciousness, however the base was never the thing that really mattered to me – it was the topping.

Like gooseberries it can be tart and sour, but with the right added ingredients it [...]

I’ve been on “holiday” this week. We were walking through the Lake District, following Wainwright’s Coast to Coast route from St Bee’s on the east coast as far as Kirkby Stephen on the west side of the Yorkshire Dales. We did the rest of the route (Kirkby Stephen to Robin Hood’s Bay on the east [...]

This is the last (for now) of the whipped coconut cream recipes. It’s a sort of Eton Mess but without the meringue. I did try putting the homemade meringue in it but they went spongy too easily – the version in the picture has these in. If you like the textural addition of some spongy pieces [...]

Fancy a pudding? Sometimes such things are necessary, whether because you’re serving up a posh dinner or because you’re in the mood to go completely wild. Although the temptation when going completely wild is to take the easy option and buy a totally non-paleo pudding. My only problem is that I tend to find those [...]
